A tribute to Randy Pausch

On a saturday morning when I was having my first feeling of being a workaholic, my friend pinged me with this link http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo which turned out to be a really huge one (around 1hr 16mins), I had no idea, I will have traces of tears down my eyes. I have been emotional in the past and presentation about life, struggle, success and numerous other things have made me nostalgic. Yet this amazing person, Randy Pausch (yes I was unaware of him, even though going through a whole semester studying Computer Graphics), amazed me to new levels.
He uses some trade mark style one will see in a presentation, his idea has brough revolution in so many fields.. But above all, he was a person so pure at heart. And as my grandma used to say, "Even God has shortage of Good people around in heaven, that is why he was called to spread his charm", Randy Pausch passed away on july 25 2008, leaving a legacy for us all to cherish.

I am not a believer in adding Video's to the blogger page unless they spread the right knowledge. And hence, I am adding his Last Lecture here.
